scare

Allen's main MVP rival Saquon Barkley had another big game to help the Eagles book a fourth straight play-off appearance - but only after surviving a late scare against the Carolina Panthers.

After officers at the scene were confronted by angry and scared worshippers on Friday, Mr Patton said police were focused on ensuring their safety.

"I was scared. I felt the weight of what this character meant."

"This will be my seventh surgery but I am still scared because I'm just not confident that I will be in a much better place afterwards. I don't have another choice."

"Yes, you see I'm still scared to even mention this," he said.
